My first anime website
Hey everyone! I wanted to share a side project I've been pouring my time into recently called kuro-sakura. It’s a lightweight anime tracking and discovery web app.
The Tech Stack:
Frontend: Vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
API: Connected directly to the AniList API for data.
Hosting/DNS: Deployed on Vercel and managed via Cloudflare.
Current Features Live:
📥 Direct download options
🔐 User authentication / Login page
🔖 Bookmarks/Favorites to save your shows
📅 Weekly release schedule list
🗂️ Dedicated genre section for easy browsing
Fair warning: It's still a work in progress! There are a few bugs I’m actively squashing right now. Also, a quick heads-up: the provider backend serves some aggressive ads on standard mobile browsers, so I highly recommend checking it out using Brave or an ad-blocker for the cleanest experience.
I’d love to get your thoughts on the UI layout and loading speeds. Link is in the comments!
